Whiplash and Personal Injury Claims in the Netherlands

Whiplash after an accident in the Netherlands, but nothing on the scan? You can still recover your injury damages. Discover your rights.

Are you suffering from whiplash symptoms after an accident in the Netherlands? These symptoms are often not visible on an X-ray. However, the damage resulting from these symptoms must be compensated under Dutch law! In many cases, there is indeed a consequence of the accident. This can only be different if it is determined that the whiplash symptoms are imagined or do not fit the accident.

To demonstrate the symptoms, it is important that you have your whiplash examined by your general practitioner and that you may be referred to a specialist. This information can then be requested in your personal injury case by your medical advisor. Your medical advisor can then make a statement about the causal link between your whiplash and the accident. The costs of the medical advisor and your lawyer are reimbursed by the liable insurer. This is the case if liability for the accident has been acknowledged. Even if liability is acknowledged for 50%, the costs of a medical advisor are 100% reimbursed. Get free, no-obligation information quickly about the possibilities of recovering damages resulting from whiplash.

Frequently asked questions

Can I claim compensation for whiplash even if it does not show on a scan?

Whiplash symptoms are often not visible on an X-ray, but that does not rule out compensation. As long as the symptoms are a plausible consequence of the accident and fit it, they qualify for compensation, including pain and suffering for pain and loss of enjoyment of life.

How do I substantiate whiplash symptoms?

Have your GP examine you and, if needed, refer you to a specialist. Your medical adviser can then obtain that information and give an opinion on the causal link between the whiplash and the accident.

What does a whiplash case cost me?

Nothing. The costs of the medical adviser and your lawyer are paid by the liable insurer once liability is acknowledged. Even where liability is acknowledged for 50%, the medical adviser’s costs are reimbursed in full.
